Database Limitations

When I used to use perl to code, I ran into an issue where I would get an error from the DBI module when i tried to insert more than 8000 characters at one time. I know php has it's own postgres functions, we use postgres, and I was wondering if there where any limitations like that in php? I know my limitation in perl was not perl or postgres, it was the DBI module that we were using. Thanks!
